Undercover police officer Lu Yuan was ordered to sneak into the "Emerald Palace" club owned by the Far East Group and transform into a cynical "love saint" manager, trying to uncover the shady story of this power and sex empire. He relies on the assistance of the police's high-tech ring - which can analyze micro-expressions and interfere with concentration, but can also cause embarrassing "social side effects" - to deal with the core members of the criminal group.
At the same time, policewoman Chu Qing disguised herself as a financial reporter and sneaked into the investigation. The two did not know each other's identities. From probing to cooperating, they struggled to collect evidence in a maze of luxury and crisis. Faced with the suspicion of the group's second-in-command Zhao Tianxiong, the greed of the financial director Bai Wei, and the mysterious identity of the international special agent Xue, Lu Yuan had to dance on the edge of the knife.
Ambiguity and crisis intertwined: In order to complete the task, he was forced to play the role of a prodigal, using words to obtain information, and disguise to resolve murderous intentions, but he also fell deeper and deeper into lies. When the time to close the net comes, everything collapses, and the truth is far more cruel than imagined...
This is a game between justice and desire, and also a life-and-death contest of how the undercover can hold on to the light in the darkness.
